Dear Gromacs Users,


I have simulated a system of protein-ion complex. As a part of the
analysis, I want to see whether there are any H-bonds or other interactions
between the active site residues and the water surrounding those residues.
I was trying to perform the same using g_hbond program of gromacs, but
could not get any output. I tried with varying the cut off value and as
well specifying the "contact" option to look for the non H-bond
interactions too, that fall within the cut off mentioned.

Can anybody suggest me how to look for the H-bonds between protein residues
and water molecules?


Your question and subject line refer to different things. Detecting hydrogen bonds between protein residues and water is trivial. Create index groups for the residues of interest and select these residues and water as the two groups for g_hbond. Water-mediated hydrogen bonds between residues, however, are far more difficult to obtain, but this topic has been covered many times in the list archive.
